3QFY16 CAD/GDP corrects to 1.3% See surplus in 4Q and to remain low in FY17; INR to correct still 21 March 216 ECOSCOPE The Economy Observer Balance of Payments 3QFY16 CAD/GDP at 1.3% and trade deficit at 6.4% The Balance of Payments (BoP) data release for 3QFY16 showed Net capital flows at USDb while RBI further correction in CAD/GDP amidst contracting external trade. absorbed USD4b as forex reserves CAD/GDP ratio at 1.3% was better in QoQ and YoY terms. However, YTD CAD/GDP stood at 1.4% invisibles and capital flows remained weak leading to marginal BoP Net capital flow USD3b; BoP at USD16b FY16 CAD/GDP at.7%,.9% in FY17 surplus that was absorbed fully by RBI in its forex reserve kitty. INR bias for nominal depreciation YTDFY16 CAD/GDP too was placed lower at 1.4% vis-à-vis 1.7% in YTD. Lower capital flows however, reduced the overall BoP surplus to USD16b from USD33b in YTD. We expect CAD/GDP to turn surplus in 4QFY16 while the deficit may rise only marginally in FY17. However, structural weakness in trade and services account and somewhat uncertain capital flows together with RBI s proactive absorption is likely to keep the bias on INR to depreciate nominally. I. CAD/GDP eases to 1.3% in 3QFY16 CAD/GDP eases: Current Account Deficit stood at USD7b (1.3% of GDP) as compared with USD9b (1.7% of GDP) during 2QFY16 and USDb (1.5% of GDP) during 3Q. Exports and imports lowest in 21 quarters: Exports fell further to USD65b that was the weakest in 21 quarters. Imports at USD99b too was the lowest for as many quarters. Thus trade deficit at USD34b remained closer to the recent lows of USD31b of Mar-. Invisibles weakest in quarters: Net invisibles (comprising services, factor incomes and remittances) have fallen again and at USD27b was the lowest in quarters. While net services surplus remained low, remittances declined both QoQ and YoY. Net capital flows low at USDb: At USDb net capital inflow remained low vis-à-vis USD23b YoY but improved marginally from last quarter of USD9b. While FDI picked up, FIIs registered and outflow while NRI deposits moderated too. Overall BoP marginal surplus of USD3b: For the second quarter in succession BoP was just in balance with USD3b surplus after nil surplus of previous quarter. Net forex accretion of USD4b was nearly to the extent of BoP surplus. The bias on the part of RBI to accumulate forex reserves have kept the pressure on INR helping it to depreciate nominally, although this has merely maintained the REER at a relatively stable level. II. CAD to turn surplus in 4QFY16; see FY17 CAD/GDP at a tad higher at.9% Surplus in last quarter but INR to be under pressure: CAD/GDP for 4QFY16 is likely to turn surplus on the back of sharp drop in total trade and deficit. Structural weaknesses in services trade and uncertain nature of capital flows given the policy of absorbing forex reserves by RBI may continue to put the pressure on INR even though we estimate CAD/GDP to correct to.7% in FY16 and to remain low at.9% in FY17.
